• <br /> • <br /> CITY OF EVERETT STORMWATER MANAGEMENT MANUAL <br /> • <br /> f. Level spreaders <br /> • g. Berms. <br /> Design and Installation Specifications <br /> • 1. Made of urethane foam sewn into a woven geosynthetic fabric. <br /> • 2. It is triangular, 10 inches to 14 inches high in the center,with a 20-inch to 28-inch base. A 2—foot <br /> • apron extends beyond both sides of the triangle along its standard section of 7 feet. A sleeve at <br /> one end allows attachment of additional sections as needed. <br /> • 3. Install with ends curved up to prevent water from flowing around the ends. <br /> 4. The fabric flaps and check dam units are attached to the ground with wire staples. Wire staples <br /> • should be No. 11 gauge wire and should be 200 millimeters to 300 millimeters in length. <br /> • 5. When multiple units are installed,the sleeve of fabric at the end of the unit shall overlap the <br /> • abutting unit and be stapled. <br /> • 6. Check dams should be located and installed as soon as construction will allow. <br /> • 7. Check dams should be placed perpendicular to the flow of water. <br /> • 8. When used as check dams,the leading edge must be secured with rocks, sandbags, or a small key <br /> • slot and staples. <br /> • 9. In the case of grass-lined ditches and swales,check dams and accumulated sediment shall be <br /> removed when the grass has matured sufficiently to protect the ditch or swale unless the slope of <br /> the swale is greater than 4 percent. The area beneath the check dams shall be seeded and <br /> • mulched immediately after dam removal. <br /> • Maintenance Standards <br /> • 1. Triangular silt dams shall be monitored for performance and sediment accumulation during and <br /> • after each runoff producing rainfall. Sediment shall be removed when it reaches one half the <br /> height of the dam. <br /> • 2. Anticipate submergence and deposition above the triangular silt dam and erosion from high flows <br /> • around the edges of the dam. Immediately repair any damage or any undercutting of the dam. <br /> lb <br /> 3.3.10 BMP C209: Outlet Protection <br /> • <br /> • Purpose <br /> • Outlet protection prevents scour at conveyance outlets and minimizes the potential for downstream <br /> erosion by reducing the velocity of concentrated stormwater flows. <br /> IP <br /> Conditions of Use <br /> Outlet protection is required at the outlets of all ponds,pipes, ditches, or other conveyances, and where <br /> ID runoff is conveyed to a natural or manmade drainage feature such as a stream,wetland,lake, or ditch. <br /> • Design and Installation Specifications <br /> • See Volume I,Chapter 6.6. <br /> Maintenance Standards <br /> • <br /> 1. Inspect and repair as needed <br /> • <br /> 2. Add rock as needed to maintain the intended function <br /> • <br /> • <br /> • Volume II— Construction Stormwater Pollution Prevention <br /> 3-48 <br /> • <br /> • <br />
